lyrics

GONE LIKE A TRAIN (3:36) On the run again, seems you still can’t stop the engine from running in your head. Blind from the steam, you missed your station again. What’s in stillness that you fear? Do the roots run down too deep? Is the wind running in your veins making you rush like a train? In your head again... You try to mend the memories you left out on the rails. Spent from the race, the pieces fall out of place. Lives are passing you by, yet you can’t seem to lose the loneliness sleeping in your bed. Tired of the ghosts living in your shadow. What about home do you fear? Do the roots run down too near to the hearts you've burned with games? So you run like a train, you’re gone like a train! God only knows your heart is a diamond in the slum. Good things come to those who shine through the grind only to find sweeter days and changing times. God knows how it all ends when home is a restless ghost train headed for a wreck. You can always use that ticket home where the sea comes out to greet your weary feet. What of all the angels you’ve ignored... Were they all such a dreadful bore? What of those you yearn to meet... Are they missing or plain to see? What of the one you want to be... Do the wings grow out too far and grand and strong to carry when you’re running like a train? You got to jump that train! Or you’ll be gone like a train.
